Posh admits she's not the best singer

Former Spice Girl Posh Spice has finally come to the conclusion
which most of us reached last decade - she is not the best singer
in the world.

But you can't say she didn't try.

The 30-year-old expectant mother has announced she is cutting
short her ongoing, and often painful, bid to become a pop star.
After several ill-fated attempts at launching a solo career, Mrs
David Beckham is planning to concentrate her efforts on clothes
design.

She told London's Daily Mail: "I think it will be
difficult for me to continue with my musical career. The industry
is not what it was.

"I know I could never become the best singer in the world. I am
conscious of that.

"However, everything to do with fashion comes naturally to me. I
live in Spain and have two sons. This takes up most of my time.

"The rest is taken up by design, which is my great
passion. I don't think I'll ever feel that passion for music
again."

She has launched her own brand, DVB, which stands for David and
Victoria Beckham, which make, among other things, bags for carting
around baby paraphernalia. She has also designed a
pair of £140 jeans for fashion company Rock and Republic
- billed as "Wonderbras for bottoms".

Beckham last released a single a year ago but it only reached
No3 in the UK charts despite a huge amount of promotion work.

An album worth of songs she recorded with US producer Damon Dash
was also axed and she has been ditched by her record label,
Telstar.

The Daily Mail claims sources say her manager Simon
Fuller has told her that he does not believe the British public
want to buy her records.

"She has more or less thrown the towel in because she has come
to realise that people do not take her seriously as a musician,"
said one source.
